Abstract:

The major goals of this project include two components: First, to broaden and deepen the fundamental understanding of coupled oscillators systems by relaxing the standard restrictive assumptions on topology (whom to connect), coupling (how-to connect) and delay (when to connect). A better understanding of these factors is needed in order to predict the behavior of the system. The second part is on the impact of this project to DoD capabilities via distributed synchronization and scheduling protocol design. Both goals have been successfully met.
